Review of the 2025 BMW X5 and X6: Experiencing True Luxury Performance

The 2025 BMW X5 and X6 are high-performance luxury SUVs that are both opulent and sporty. While the X5 is a more traditional midsize crossover SUV, the X6 features a unique “crossover coupe” silhouette with a sloping roofline that sacrifices space for style. Both models now come equipped with mild-hybrid technology for smoother performance and offer high-performance M Competition versions with a twin-turbo V8 engine that cranks out 617 horsepower.

The X5 and X6 are loaded with tech, ranging from flashy infotainment systems to gesture controls. However, the learning curve for the technology can be steep, and some features, like gesture control, may feel gimmicky. Despite their large exterior dimensions, the back seat space in the X5 and X6 is not as generous as you might expect, so passengers may find it slightly cramped.

In terms of interior and technology, the X5 and X6 both offer luxurious and sporty cabins with high-quality materials and cutting-edge features. The curved display housing a large infotainment screen and driver display is a highlight, along with the customizable settings controlled by BMW’s iDrive 8 infotainment system. Pricing for the 2025 models has increased slightly, and new features like the lane-change assist feature have been added.

When it comes to performance, the X5 and X6 offer a range of powertrain options, including a plug-in hybrid version only available in the X5. The base X5 models, powered by a turbocharged inline-six engine, deliver a balance of power and fuel efficiency. Fuel economy numbers vary depending on the model, with the higher-performance M Competition variants offering impressive acceleration but lower gas mileage.

Overall, the 2025 BMW X5 and X6 are top contenders in the midsize luxury SUV segment, blending luxury, comfort, and performance in a stylish package. Despite some drawbacks like the steep learning curve for tech and limited back seat space, the X5 and X6 remain compelling choices for those seeking a high-end SUV experience.
